Deo Rian - Ernesto Nazareth, Solista: Deo Rian (1970)

Hello, good evening! I made a small surgery on my left feet this week and this is the reason why Loronix was not updated as usual. Additionally, my mother came to give assistance and make things more complicated as never with several recommendations, lots of things to eat and those really annoying mom’s questions about life that makes we feel really embarrassed.

Among the ups and downs of mom’s visit there is something really good, she is back to contributions and I want to start her small package with the one that we like most, which is the first LP recorded by the Brazilian bandolim virtuoso Deo Rian. Let’s see.

This is Deo Rian – Ernesto Nazareth, Solista: Deo Rian (1970), for RCA Vitor, featuring wonderful renditions of Ernesto Nazareth music played by Deo Rian bandolim with the accompaniment of Quinteto Villa Lobos, Dino 7 Cordas, Canhoto and a not credited strings quartet. This is a magnificent album, not only for the choro fans, but for everyone in the mood of listening Ernesto Nazareth beautiful melodies with really creative arrangements made by a not credited artist.

The back cover brings Deo Rian autography, dedicating this album to Sergio Bittencourt, which is Jacob do Bandolim son. My mother demands that I keep this album available to Deo Rian due this writing at the back cover, which is something that I totally agree. It will be a great pleasure to give this album to Deo Rian as a present from Loronix. Tracks include:

Jaime Alem & Nair Candia - As Musicas de Tom Jobim (1978)

Hello, good evening! This is the first out of a series of albums recorded by Jaime Alem and Nair Candia for CID, under a series named “Talento Brasileiro”. I think the first who spoke with me about this series was the might Mr. D&C, a long time ago. I confess that with no help from my friends I could never take these albums in consideration. The main performers are not credited at the front cover and it is necessary to go across the back cover to realize this is a career album of Jaime & Nair, which I did not know before taking this album. Jaime & Nair albums are sought after by many collectors, especially outside of Brazil. It is time to check what they have to offer. Let’s see.

This is Jaime Alem & Nair Candia – Serie Talento Brasileiro 4 – As Musicas de Tom Jobim (1978), for CID, featuring a repertoire of Antonio Carlos Jobim tunes. As Musicas de Tom Jobim work very nice as a perfect counterpoint to previous Loronix releases, mostly instrumentals. Jaime Alem is in charge of arrangements and Nair Candia for voice, delivered here by a chorus. It will be really important if you leave your feedback on this release, Jaime & Nair recorded other albums for CID in the same concept featuring tunes by Milton Nascimento, Chico Buarque and probably additional ones, not yet identified. Tracks include:

Tamba Trio - 20 Anos de Sucesso (1982)

Hello, good evening! Do not let the appearance cheats you such like I was when I saw this album for the first time. 20 Anos de Sucesso celebrates the 20th anniversary of one of the coolest Bossa Nova trios from the 60’s, Tamba Trio. What seems to be just a collection of Tamba Trio’s best tracks is in fact a career album featuring Luiz Eca, Bebeto and Helcio Milito revisiting previous released tracks and some never released before. In summary, Tamba Trio went to studio in 1982 to record 20 Anos de Sucesso, which is nice enough to make the day of Tamba Trio fans and casual listeners. Once again, I would like to thank Jorge Mello for another awesome finding. Let’s see.

This is Tamba Trio – 20 Anos de Sucessos (1982), for RCA Victor, celebrating Tamba Trio 20th anniversary, being the last Tamba Trio career LP. This is really unbelievable. Asa Branca and Lamento Negro were recorded live at Sonda 1999 night club, which is a place I never heard before, while the others were recorded in studio. I don’t want to bore you longer, stay with Tamba Trio and don’t forget to say “Thank You” to Jorge Mello on comments section for another great contribution. Tracks include:

TAMBA TRIO

Luiz Eca
(voice, piano)
Bebeto
(voice, flute, bass, alto sax)
Helcio Milito
(voice, drums, tamba)
